Katherine Chambers Photography Blog bio picture
  • Welcome to my Blog!!

    Thanks so much for visiting my blog! I’m Katherine Chambers. I’m a Cleveland, Ohio based photographer
    and travel all over to shoot. Well before the birth of my own two children began my passion for photography.
    I was a child myself when I started to capture images using my parents Nikon 35mm camera.
    I studied and majored in photography at Loyola University of Chicago and in 1999 I officially started my
    photography business in the Cleveland area. Even though I’ve had many opportunities to work on other projects
    I choose to only photograph babies, children and families. From the first time I clicked the shutter I knew that
    was what I wanted to do. These little subjects are so enchanting and beautiful, it’s a dream job to create
    these images for you!

    I can’t wait to capture your story! Thanks for stopping by. Visit often!

Photography Display Inspiration {Katherine Chambers Photography}

Recently I had 3 different clients ask me about helping them with wall displays. I’m always happy to help with photography display. Once upon a time, I did framing at my Rocky River studio and I really want to get back into it again. Before that I worked for a framer in Chicago for years when I was in college. It was here that we did framing for the Art Institute of Chicago and I learned the importance of archival framing. If you are a do-it-yourself framer, please do not use the cardboard backing that comes with ready made mats and frames. Acid-free or archival mat board (sometimes called Museum Rag Mat)  is a MUST when framing art. If you use the mat and backing that comes with ready made frames, the acid in a paper mat or cardboard (ick!), will eat away the photograph, fade colors and yellow the photograph. It is SO worth the extra money to have a acid-free mat cut to fit your frame. You also want to make sure to use acid-free backing board and archival tape or photo corners to mount the picture.

After doing some searching online I found lots of display inspiration so I thought I’d share with all of you. Below are some boards I made up (none of the photography is mine). This was purely for wall display ideas. I tried to put links below each board for you when possible. I have some fun products I’ll share with you later:)

New Bloggity Blog

I finally got my blog back up and running! I’m still tweaking things so bear with me if all the bells and whistles don’t work yet.
Well, the holiday hubbub is finally over, the kids are back to school and I’m extremely content to be sitting here with my hot coffee and a quite house.
I am going to revel in this moment…..ahhh!

I also thought I’d share some images from this shoot I did recently. This smiley bundle of joy was a preemie which you’d never guess looking at him now.
I could just kiss and pinch those cheeks all day!

Oh and happy new year to all!! 2012 is going to be a great year–I can just feel it!!
